I took quantum physics with Prof. Kroemer. At the beginning it was standing room only with about 30 students. By the time finals came around there were six of us. Brutal. I've got some stories about that guy. RIP.

This may seem silly but step 0 of every alternative ROM install is always what? "Backup your phone." But they never tell the user how. If you're really going to target "non-tech savvy folk" you can't just leave

Favorite part and best part. When the large majority of advertisers block advertisements there's really no room to complain when anyone else does the same.

Musk has repeatedly claimed he allows what the law allows. Well, court orders are legally binding which is why people can be found in contempt of court and jailed for violating them. That's the case in the US and I assume in Brasil as

Tipping (along with often poor service and exorbitant prices) is a big reason why I rarely eat out unless it's on someone else's dime. Cheaper, more educational and more rewarding to learn to prepare something at home.

I don't see how more people don't understand self-checkout to be the uncompensated labor that it is. You're not getting paid, you're not getting any discount (certainly nothing meaningful). It's jobs lost for your l

Unedited title: "Affirmative Action and the Jewish Elephant in the Room" I know anti-Blackness is de rigueur here on HN but surely the Jews will be spared?

Kind of annoying that they don't mention it isn't just dvd, it's also bluray. I doubt any streaming services streams at bluray quality.
